GRIDDLE START-UP INSTRUCTIONS

A.

GRIDDLE CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

The cooking surface of the Griddle is protected by a rust preventative prior to shipping from the
factory.  Clean the Griddle cooking surfaces with water and a mild detergent, and rinse thoroughly
with clear water BEFORE attempting to light the appliance.

B.

GRIDDLE LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE:

  See 

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

 inside front panel.

    

1.

Each burner assembly has a pilot assembly which must be lit before the associated main burner
can be operated.  This operation requires a LONG match.  Set all temperature control knobs and
gas safety valve control knobs to the OFF position.

     2.

To light the pilot flame, turn the knob on the SAFETY VALVE (adjacent to each thermostat) to the
PILOT position.  Depress and hold the safety valve knob and light the pilot.  The pilot is located
behind the front baffle, and is visible through the small opening in the baffle.

     3.

After the pilot flame has been established, the match can be withdrawn.  Continue to press in on the
knob for approximately 30 seconds, then slowly release the knob.  When the knob is released, the
pilot should stay lit.

     4.

When the pilot flame is established, turn the safety valve knob counter clock-wise to the 

ON

 position.

NOTE:

  On new installations, or whenever the gas line has been disconnected, the pilot flame may

take several minutes to light.  See 

PURGING AIR FROM GAS LINE

, page 8.

     4.

Turn the thermostat to the desired setting and, when the burner lights, observe the flame.  Burner
mixture may be adjusted by rotating the shutter on the end of the main burner.

Refer to 

PILOT FLAME ADJUSTMENT,

 page 8, for initial pilot flame adjustment and calibration

procedures.
